The bistability of embedded elements provides a natural route through which to introduce reprogrammability to elastic meta-materials. However, attempts to leverage this programmability in objects that can change shape, or morph, have been limited by the tendency for the deformations induced by multiple elastic elements to be incompatible --- deformation is frustrated by geometry. We study the root cause of this frustration in a particular system, the soft morphable sheet, which is caused by an azimuthal buckling instability of bistable elements embedded within a sheet. With this understanding we show that, for this system at least, the root of frustration can itself be frustrated by an appropriate design of the lattice on which bistable elements are placed.
We describe a combined experimental and theoretical investigation of shape-morphing structures assembled by actuating composite (Janus) fibers, taking into account multiple relevant factors affecting shape transformations, such as strain rate, compos
Using the example of Zn-doped La2CuO4, we demonstrate that a spinless impurity doped into a non-frustrated antiferromagnet can induce substantial frustrating interactions among the spins surrounding it. This counterintuitive result is the key to reso
The title compound Ba3RuTi2O9 crystallizes with a hexagonal unit cell. It contains layers of edge shared triangular network of Ru4+ (S=1) ions. Magnetic susceptibility chi(T) and heat capacity data show no long range magnetic ordering down to 1.8K. A
Using spin-polarized low-energy electron microscopy to study magnetization in epitaxial layered systems, we found that the area vs perimeter relationship of magnetic domains in the top Fe layers of Fe/NiO/Fe(100) structures follows a power-law distri
Shape morphing magnetic soft materials, composed of magnetic particles in a soft polymer matrix, can transform shapes reversibly, remotely, and rapidly, finding diverse applications in actuators, soft robotics, and biomedical devices. To achieve on-d
